I can get a new cooling unit for my refrigerator for $450 + $95 shipping. How difficult is it to swap out the cooling units?
Thanks,

There are You Tube videos that show it. When my Dometic died I decided to chuck the whole thing because other things like the control boards, etc could be next.

Thanks. I hadn't thought to look on YouTube. I will check that out. I am leaning toward replacing the cooling unit to minimize cost. It will have a three year warranty and the rest of the refrigerator looks like it is in good shape.
If I go for it I will try to document it for the photo site. I couldn't find anything when I did my search.
Thanks again,
John

if you replace the cooling unit, get one of the Amish new or rebuilt units.
